usm: http2: classification: Improve classification of gRPC

[guyarb]

What does this PR do?

The PR improves the gRPC plaintext classification.

• The PR uses functions used for the decoding, to ensure we have a single version
• The PR extends the number of frames we filter from 10 to 90
• The PR simplifies the code to handle verification errors
• The PR supports more edge cases (literal headers without indexing or never indexed, dynamic table update)

Motivation

Improved algorithm to classify the protocol.

Regression Detector

Regression Detector Results

Run ID: 1d9d1304-c488-43d4-ad97-517d38158f89 Baseline: e28da0ffc545969927a951d25dc48caaab383679 Comparison: bbcc7a5f3e0069fe449c5afc75ced872ad6f3757

Performance changes are noted in the perf column of each table:

• ✅ = significantly better comparison variant performance
• ❌ = significantly worse comparison variant performance
• ➖ = no significant change in performance

No significant changes in experiment optimization goals

Confidence level: 90.00% Effect size tolerance: |Δ mean %| ≥ 5.00%

There were no significant changes in experiment optimization goals at this confidence level and effect size tolerance.

Experiments ignored for regressions

Regressions in experiments with settings containing erratic: true are ignored.

Explanation

A regression test is an A/B test of target performance in a repeatable rig, where "performance" is measured as "comparison variant minus baseline variant" for an optimization goal (e.g., ingress throughput). Due to intrinsic variability in measuring that goal, we can only estimate its mean value for each experiment; we report uncertainty in that value as a 90.00% confidence interval denoted "Δ mean % CI".

For each experiment, we decide whether a change in performance is a "regression" -- a change worth investigating further -- if all of the following criteria are true:

1. Its estimated |Δ mean %| ≥ 5.00%, indicating the change is big enough to merit a closer look.

2. Its 90.00% confidence interval "Δ mean % CI" does not contain zero, indicating that if our statistical model is accurate, there is at least a 90.00% chance there is a difference in performance between baseline and comparison variants.

3. Its configuration does not mark it "erratic".
